Discovering the PlayStation Vita

PS3 Attitude: "A couple of months ago, I wrote about how I was perfectly happy with my trusty PSP, while I waited until I could afford a Vita. Well, a few weeks ago that day finally came, so I’ve spent the last month getting to grips (as well as swipes, tilts and taps) with Sony’s latest handheld console."

what? not even one comment? dude you need to talk about lackluster sales or how unhappy you are with the game selection and you will see this article explode with little kids hating on the system but dont say obvious stuff like the system has got way more support than the ps3 ever did in the first 6 months because no one is gonna comment on this article or how satisfied you are with the game selection because they dont like that, anyways you should try Sound Shapes is really an awesome game. i like how you write and your experience if you want you can add me on psn, i like to be around positive people.

How is it with music playback? Does it finally have basic fetures like crossfade, custom playlists (not how they did it with media go on.the psp), can.you get ear buds with a remote to skip or fast forward tracks?

GuyThatPlaysGames4265d ago

If you have a smartphone then just pass this system up. No need to waste your $$$ on this thing. Yea it's fun for the first few days then after that you realize "why the hell did i buy this"?

MySwordIsHeavenly4265d ago

Don't listen to this guy. I have a smartphone and a Vita. I use my Vita for playing games. My smartphone, I really only use for Minecraft, Facebook, and texting.

The Vita is a phenomenal system and yes, there ARE good games on it. Uncharted, Katamari, Wipeout, Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom, MLB 12: The Show, Gravity Rush, Sound Shapes, Motorstorm: RC, MGS HD Collection, and Puddle are my favorites, so far.

LiViNgLeGaCY4265d ago

^^^Agree with everything you said. I'd almost say Gravity Rush is worth the purchase alone of a Vita. xD

LebaNoob4264d ago

@MySwordIsHeavenly Don't forget Tales from Space, Rayman Origins, Lumines, Super Stardust Delta, Escape Plan, hundreds of great PSP games, hundreds of PS1 classics coming up in a week, and several superb-looking games releasing in the holidays!

I can't remember the last time I was this happy with a gaming purchase.

@Common
The Vita is great with music playback, the sound quality is great, and coupled with high quality headphones/buds its even better... There is no crossfade, yet... Apparently, tthere is an upcoming system update that will grant users to make custom playlist... As for a remote, I dont know of any that is compatible with the Vita, yet... But you can connect a bluetooth head set with it and listen to your music that way...

@Mike
I own a smart phone a pretty goood one, and I can tell you this... I need that second analog stick... I dare you to come up with a theoritical button setup for gravity rush for any smart phone without the idea being a complete fail... I dare ya!
And oh that 5" Oled screen is frecking perfect the colors, the response time, contrast, refresh rate, multi touch, etc..

@Common
I'd say if your thinking about getting one, your better off holding out until this holiday season, if not then there are plenty good vita games now, and even a good log of psp and soon to be ps1 titles that'll hold you until then...

My favorite is always going to be Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3. I know some people didn't like the addition of the run button. But, man that game is burned into my memory from childhood, lol.

Relientk77167d ago

That's the one I played the most as a kid. Fun times gaming on my Sega Genesis, the memories

Terry_B167d ago

Deception, MK2, MK9, MKX ..rest.

Kakashi Hatake167d ago

MK2 will always be the best in the series. Been playing a lot of MK1 lately though. Definitely enjoying it more than any other NRS era MK game.

Tankbusta40167d ago

1 and 2 were cultural phenomenon's.

specialguest167d ago

I will always have a special place in my memory for MK 1 and 2. You had to be there during that era at the arcades. Martial arts tournament fighting movies were still popular, and MK 1 was exciting. Real life motion captured characters done well (unlike Pit Fighter). A cast of characters we all liked like Bruce Lee(Lui Kang), Van Damme(Johnny Cage), the Lightning god(Raiden) from Big Trouble in Little China, and Ninjas, gotta have Ninjas. Goro was menacing as hell. The MK arcade had some of the best speakers similar to Killer Instinct as you could hear the loud crisp and bassy sound that was distinctly different than other arcades. MK 2 improved greatly on the controls and fighting mechanics
